superdave Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Thanks for the picture compliments @AxlsFavoriteRose. This was my third time seeing GN'R (2006 & 2011) and the first time I've been able to take pictures. And I had front row for both of my previous shows. I've got GA for Cincinnati, Nashville, and Pittsburgh, so I'll be sure to post my pics from those shows as well. I was kind of worried because my low battery light came on during the first few songs. And they were brand new batteries lol. Oh well. Go figure. I hope everyone had fun at the show! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Live Like a Suicide Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 10 hours ago, gnfnr2k said: so he shouldn't sound like this or this Id take those two over what he is doing now wiht his weak mickey voice You are comparing two extremities though. SCOM was sung differently during the AFD era. Neither the UYI-era SCOM or the NITL-era SCOM accurately represent how the song was originally sung. Axl sang his material with a great amount of rasp during the 90's, and as a result, most people consider that as the standard. During the AFD era though, Axl sang with less rasp and greater control. Axl may have less power now, but i think he is currently displaying a great range of technical proficiency. Certainly, Axl's current renditions of songs like Nightrain and Out ta Get Me sound similar to how they did during the AFD era. You shouldn't judge him on one song, especially one which has been sung differently for the last 30 years. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDemocracyRose Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 3 hours ago, Pedrolg said: Some songs such as SCOM remain weak in terms of performance, but shit, I wonder how it must feel for Axl to sing that - even I'm fed up with listening to it. Some GNR songs have been around for so much time, and have been played so many times, they are almost imprinted in half the world's minds. I agree. Some songs are weaker. The answer to this must be...... Release new music. Then Axl will have something new to sing. But it wont happen soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nn18 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 In my next life I want to be Melissa Reese! A kickass, supertalented cutie that got a gig of her lifetime and gets all the love from both Axl, Slash and the rest of the guys. GO GIRL! YOU ROCK! And, may I say, poor Dizzy. He's been in this band for over 20 years and yet, nobody ever notices him. And A GIRL that's been around for only 2 months allready won us over. Sorry Diswald 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree by all accounts!! I give myself right to say Civil War is the best sounding GnR song in their setlist.. Tempo-wise especially!! I feel like it's blasting on all cylinders - you know it's not being 'trapped' in itself but rocking so hard even camcorder cannot grasp it!! Close seconds spots are Coma and Estranged!!

lassie Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 16 hours ago, Top-Hatted One said: That was atrocious! He's out of tune and out of time. Nevermind the fact that he screws up the words. It is a very difficult outro to sing in your car without getting out of breathe. YCBM outro might be even tougher actually. I sing and I've had years of training when I was younger. There are exercises you do to be able to stretch out notes while limiting the breathes you need and you learn when you can sneak a breathe in. In all the years of gnr cover bands and youtube videos I've yet to see someone match my Axl rasp. I struggle with the breathing now that I don't get regular training. Your vocals cord is a muscle. It is only natural that with the throat surgery and all the years of inactivity Axl would suffer a bit but that's why he has a vocal coach. When he is on his game it is quite obvious he has training and doesn't just roll out of bed one day and decides to go tour the world. You can't expect Axl to run around for 3hrs at 54 and nail it each and every time. As the tour rolls along his vocal cord will strengthen, he will be in better shape physically and won't get out of breathe as much. Damn right, and he sounds bad this dude, oh dear.

There was a guy who looked like a mini slash walking around on the other side of the fence handing them out. He made several passes scanning the crowd really fast and pointed her out and whispered something to her and at the end of the show he told her to meet him somewhere. I couldn't really hear but in hindsight I should have befriended her and asked her if I could come along lol. Idk tho I feel like a lot of times if you get that pass you just hang out with the crew only. So it could be pretty sketch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way I wouldn't mind getting backstage to see the whole thing, even if it was just to hang out with the crew. So were you guys at the rail?
